Well that’s a pity. I had ordered a MAX31855 SPI thermocouple interface to capture temperatures on the coffee machine, and after waiting a month the sender’s just given me a refund because it didn’t get delivered. 🙁
Back to the drawing board - on a high note this means I might be able to get a MAX31865, which handles four wire PT100(0) sensors, which I have been told are much more reliable.
